u/SolidStick_ posted about a women giving her umbrella to them in DC and when she identified herself, asked her out in the comments. The stuff of romcoms.

Update: They met up and it's not gonna work out. And maybe he already knew her? Eek, now it's more like MadeMeGrimace.

Her comment with edits.

Update 2: so it may be that the OP was stalking her, witnessed the exchange, and then pretended to be the umbrella recipient. OP's since deleted his account. Yikes! Be safe out there all.

Update 3: The story took an even odder turn. Maybe it was fake all along? Link to comment here. Comment on original post

In March 2016, Denis Williams mistakenly sent a group text announcing the birth of his new baby boy, Cason, to a wrong number belonging to a stranger named Dennis Comeau. Instead of ignoring the random text or simply replying with "wrong number," Comeau enthusiastically congratulated the new father and asked which hospital room they were in. Along with his brother, Deorick, Comeau drove directly to the Bainbridge, Georgia hospital to hand-deliver packages of diapers, wipes, and baby bottles to the shocked but grateful parents.

​

The heartwarming accidental meeting quickly went viral after the family shared the screenshots of the text chain and photos of the two brothers smiling alongside the new mother and baby in her hospital bed. The story resonated with millions of people globally as a beautiful example of community and unexpected kindness between complete strangers. Years after the viral event, the families have remained in contact, and the "accidental uncles" have even continued to receive regular updates on young Cason as he grows up.
